- 1 person puts a tiny house shell up in just a few hours on his own and completes it in a week
Each block is carbon neutral, highly insulated to building regulations standards, zero waste, fire resistant, breathable and completely thermally broken. These lightweight blocks can build a strong house of any size over several floors.
Follow us to get updates on this little building, which will become a garden meditation studio. This building is foundationless and 3.8m high with a footprint of 3.6m x 4.8m plans are available to show how this can provide the shell of a tiny house for two!
www.jo-blox.com
NO LIMITATIONS on the footprint, or, within reason, number or floors
CHEAPER and FASTER than standard new build methods
LIGHTWEIGHT and does not require a foundation in many ground conditions
STRONG, far exceeds the compressive and flexural strength of ordinary brick and blocks
INSULATING, exceptional thermal and acoustic efficiency
THERMALLY BROKEN, avoids thermal bridging issues
BREATHABLE, providing excellent internal air quality due to the breathable nature of the walls and roof
NEUTRAL, does not emit more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than is taken up overall by the materials used in the block and zero waste in manufacture.
COMPLIANT with UK Building Regulations and will meet the UK Government Climate Change Act targets for 2025 and 2050 (net zero)
Even the crows were impressed.
:D
Nahhh they're just waiting for him to get done so they can start flying over it and start pooping on it ...

Not crows or ravens... notice the beak color... those are rook. Your point still stands, I'm just educating on how to identify wildlife.
Having seen this in person, it’s amazing to see what progress can be made on a daily basis. A hugely impressive project.
Very impressive indeed
Impressive! The builder's trowel-work with the plaster was top notch!
This looks like an incredible system. I've seen several alternate construction systems (some really good ones), but I think, at least for me, this is the best yet.
And the icing on the cake for me is that it's based in the UK (I have seen so many decent alternative building blocks/panels/forms, but almost all of them are in America/Australia/Germany).
Now I just need to get planning permission to build on some farm land...
How did your plan go? Did you manage to get planning permission and build with this system?
Imagine a team of ppl who have gotten into the routine of doing this already. I wonder how fast it could be built.
3 months in reality.
51.5 hours one guy.

This isn't 1 person completing a tiny house. This is a Master Mason doing Gods work.
Hard to argue truth!
@Author: What an obsession with gable roofs. Forget about that now.
As for the product, only the block is practic, the rest must be done in another way. That is too manual and does not resist inclement weather and time, it is the same as always. Although I understand that he have chosen that style, it is not required.
For larger projects or wider spans it is not suitable.
No imagine if we taught kids in school how to build their own homes or buy their own homes, anything useful.
Interesting comment as I teach crafts skills to all ages. If only young people ( more importantly their parents) could appreciate how interesting and rewarding these skills are.
Naw they got to be mindless debt slaves man
Banks and other mortgage companies would be out of business and you would have a big ol' target on your back as well as your chest !
Dangerous idea to teach kids to build on their own and be independent of the system...
I completely agree. Schools don’t teach kids much of ANY-thing regarding IMPORTANCE. Like finances, sustainable/growing food, housing… it’s disgusting
Absolutely amazing! Could see myself living in one of these! Brilliant!
This reminds me of my childhood.. I loved to watch my father work on houses. He was meticulous with every detail and put down such beautiful, smooth, gleaming cement floors. Thanks for sharing this lovely project.
A lot of talent there. Great job.
Still in awe, thank you for sharing
This is totally brilliant and so simple. Does away with all those endless layers of insulation and boards and vapour barriers and mesh and moisture protection etc ...... and all complete;y breathable - so no chance in the future of trapped moisture causing unseen problems. Cuts down on all those different deliveries too. Love it.
Thanks Mike, Breathability is a key function of the design. The benefit of this is good indoor air quality, thermal and acoustic performance.
This really does look easy enough for almost anyone to do. What a fantastic concept and building with carbon neutral materials is long overdue. Building materials like concrete and steel emit CO2 during production, are heavy, and have poor insulation value. Wood is better but is still heavy and requires a lot more skill and equipment when building with it. A lot of thought and research has obviously gone into this product and I applaud you for your efforts and hope this product can become mainstream. Let's share this video!
Doesn't look easy at all, very specialized.
It only looks easy because the builder is very experienced and skilled.
I’m tired of this notion that concrete is a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions.
Wood stores carbon. However, all it takes is a fire and that “wooden” house is gone.
There are bigger contributors to carbon emissions, concrete is the least of everyone’s concern.
• Concrete is durable-its lifespan is actually two or three times longer than other common building materials.
• Concrete is great at absorbing and retaining heat, which means it will increase energy efficiency of a building and reduce HVAC expenses.
• Its reflective properties will decrease air-conditioning costs in the hot summer months.
• Concrete produces little waste as it can be produced in batches specific to project needs.
The pros out weighs the cons.
Roman housings are made of concrete. And they are build to LAST. Soviet housings are similar and they are still standings.
Modern housings don’t last. Obviously for profit reasons. Cheaper materials, cheaper costs, make a profit. Modern housings are built for profits.
Welcome to capitalism.
@@alohatigers1199 These blocks are made of hemp n concrete so they are more sustainable and enviromentally better than just concrete.
@@kodiham7532 The core “block building” element is quick & requires minimal skill. Ditto for basic panelling & floor laying. Much of the detail finishing, however, is done with considerable skill & experience - although there are other options which could be employed which require less.
But overall, this is a really elegantly simple build - from the design, to the materials selection etc.
And it is that drive towards simplicity which helps keep it quick & straightforward.
We need to remind the joys of simplicity in our lives.
Well done! This is beautiful! I am always amazed by people who can make build homes themselves. ❤️🇧🇷
Absolutely brilliant stuff👌🏿
Great work. It was enjoyable to watch this being built.
So inspiring! Thanks for sharing!
Brilliant ! What all houses should strive to be.
Imagine having this guy as your husband or dad. ❤️ amazing work
My mind is blown by the fact that everybody commenting, and Roman who posted this, ALL go on and on about how eco friendly this product is BUT they never tell us WHAT the blocks are made of! So, they're telling us that this product is amazing and eco friendly, but what the hell, we're not gonna tell ya what it's made of... for no good reason, but, well, we just don't give a fuck. We went to the trouble of filming a time-lapse to showcase our mystery product that you the viewers can't get, AND, we won't tell you what it's made of after we told you how amazing it is. Makes sense to me!
This is amazing. Love it
Loved this build. 👍👍👍
Amazing craftsmanship
Very relaxing to watch!
Love this ! Amazing system ! Will look into this when we plan to extend
Good job. I like it more people need these more efficient. Cheaper and better st same time
this is new to me...thanks for sharing
Talent is an understatement
Super great idea. Loving it
Amazing concept .
The nicest shed I’ve ever seen!
This is crazy! It looks so easy to build!
So are cinter block houses....
It looks easy because he's clearly skilled. I imagine it would take a regular person 2-4 times as long.
@@laurensimonelli5654 first time is always the slowest. I bet hes done this before as well
Awesome job for 1 man. I really admire you.
Thats really cool to watch the transformation
awesome, love the roof too
A true artist at work.
What a MAN! Fascinating Man. Impressive.
Thats incredible for one man...
This is such a nice , innovative design. Wonderful ideas!
A work of art,i love watching these videos, great job.
TOTALLY FANTASTIC.
Great work!
Amazing!
Great job
Great Handwork. Fabulous.... I'm in Love wit this kind of building, all on your own, with your own Hands. Perfect 👌🌟
Thanks
Brilliant!
Fantastic!
This was amazing 😍🤩
Impressive work 👏👍
Thanks ❤️
eco osb and fire resistant wood, nice
Happy New Year.
All the best wishes for you.
This is one of the most if not the most simplest and most efficient way of of building a house
Incroyable, c'est magnifique
would be interesting to know the cost of the build also the size of blocks used , how many blocks ect ,overall internal /external size of building
He's probably the most hard working man in America! That's a lot to be proud of. It is gorgeous. It takes me longer than that to figure out a box of Legos. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing
Pretty certain he's British so that might explain it 😆
@@katep6724 😊 have a happy Sunday.
I was in construction for a lot of years and this mans skills were outstanding and enjoyed the video. Brought back memories of applying stucco using a trowl.
Is this product or something like it available in the US?
@@ashleighnunez5532 I live in Fl. too and my guess is that it would not pass a building inspection.
I‘ve just recently watched this video about similar „bricks“ made out of hemp. It‘s a similar system and it should meet building standards. Not shure about it being suitable for Florida weather though.

Check out a product called HEMPCRETE...made in Alberta, Canada

@@greggshaw7936 I did some research on these blocks and they are made of hemp too.
Very, very cool.
Awesome
Thank you for the video
This will probably be the construction format of the future. I'll bet many people make their own homes with it being so easy with those blocks.
Very impressive 👏
This looks amazing quality and such a simple system. This must have taken some serious research. The best carbon-neutral build concept I have seen.
Well planned and executed, I hope this gets all the attention it clearly deserves.
❤️👌🍁Stunning….much respect.✊✊
Amazing.
Amazing
men like this is why cnc robotic built homes will never pop off. respect to this man.
I love it !
The crows like it, that's the nicest Garden shed I've seen.
That is amazing. You are my hero. I would sure like to learn from you if I was much younger.
No helpless old man here! Imagine what a 4 person team could do in Hawaii before winter!
I bought a piece of property with an old house and a cinder block 1 1/2 car garage. Tore down the house and used the good lumber from the house to put a second story on the garage, can't get anymore enviromentaly friendly than that.
Wow, this is amazing. This is a great concept, I hope it catches on nationally. Well done!
Thanks, we have had a lot of interest locally and like you we hope it will appeal to a wider audience in both the UK and abroad.
@@ironimp1 hi, do you know if they have started to produce/sell these blocks?
I've enquired (view email) a few times, bit have had no reply.
Thanks

Awesome! 👏 👏 👏
From Steve. You built a house. You did a beautiful, beautiful job. You are a perfectionist. 😏👍
All that in just one week by just one person? No way!
Yes way! as I was the man who did it!
There is a time lapse video to prove it, we did this timed video because we knew that people would doubt it.
Very Nice
Brilliant
I wish I had the stuff to build that I am so impressed
Amazing...
Потрясающе!
Great 👍 inspiring
Love it
Awesome if I build another house it will be small and will utilize these methods.
If you consider average working day consists of 8 hours this would equate to approx 6.5 days that is impressive for so much detail... keep up the good work!
Thats a fantastic tiny house, I think you don't need a heating system, the lamp will give enought heat to the room. Very very nice, you are a lucky man.
This guy is my idol
Bravo 👍👍👍👍👍
Why did the fairy tale about the wolf huffing and puffing and blowing the house down come to mind immediately.
I like my concrete block house, thank you very much.
Fortunately, there are different materials in the world to suite different conditions. In the UK we have used lightweight timber buildings for over 2000 years and they don't blow away.
"MARVELOUS"
Very impressive 👍 I'd love to live there. I'd love to have one built it's beautiful ☺️❤️ 😍
This is amazing! And, the guy is wearing slacks and a button up shirt - pro!
i’m asking for this fella hand in marriage. 😂 Awesome to watch
बहुत खूबसूरत.....
'so beautiful'.... thank you for watching Vijay K
Good djob 👍
I would like the full video curious about doing this in the states
These are all great products right up to the point where you price it and realize that after shipping and all the engineering stamps you have to bribe your way into getting it costs more than traditional stick built and you still have to do all the work.
There's a reason why nobody uses these systems and until these companies start pushing localities into accepting their systems in their building codes we're going to be stuck with non-green building systems, or if the greens get their way, no building at all.
Super Arbeit super Video
Nice
perfect
